Fedora-Minimal-armhfp-21-20140730-sda.raw.xz on Cubieboard 2 - problems with ethernet

[Robert Moskowitz]

I believe the problem is with the internal ethernet.  I attached an old 
USB Realtek ethernet adapter I have and the following occured:


[18306.819334] rtl8150 2-1:1.0: eth1: rtl8150 is detected
[18306.830541] usbcore: registered new interface driver rtl8150
[18307.151989] net eth1: eth1: allmulti set
[18307.156660] net eth1: eth1: allmulti set

Then I plugged a cable in (that at first kept popping out as the tab is 
broken on it):

[18459.380425] net eth1: eth1: allmulti set
[18460.881679] net eth1: eth1: allmulti set

So you can see that the Realtek is working, but the internal Cubieboard 
ethernet is not.  This ethernet is working in both the F19 and F20 
remixes. Its MAC addr is local scope.

Now that a connection is up I can install a few things to try...
